Also besides bearing down hard caughing can help stop an arrythimia. I also seemed to have most of my attacks towards the end right around midnight while laying down. But the pounding heart i still get even with my new heart wen on a certain side sometimes. I that that part is just that now we who have heart issues are hyper sensitive to what's happing on in our bodies.

I have not been successful with that technique, but splashing very cold water on my face several times helps calm my heart down so it doesn't pound so hard. And yes, ALL of my attacks are at night. My sister thinks I have sleep apnea. Hopefully I will get an appointment with a cardiologist soon and maybe he will have me do a sleep study. Maybe the reason I feel so rotten most of the time is because I can't get enough sleep.
